National Museum of Roller Skating explores the development of skates, competitive skating, and the wider culture of the sport in Lincoln.
Equipment and memorabilia show how designs and practices changed over time. The photograph depicts an early skate in the collection rather than a modern skating rink.
Check the museum's current weekday schedule before traveling to South Street. Admission is free, with donations welcomed, but major holidays and special dates can change access. This is a collection-based museum rather than a public skating session; arrange groups or research inquiries directly with the museum.
